[Bi-Amping La Scala's]

I want to bi amp my speakers .They have the Crites A-4500 crossovers .I want to use a pair of Wm5's and a pair of Ampex 6973's for power .Sesame street explanation please .My preamp has dual out's so that is not a factor .

I finally finished up my Ampex 6973's mono blocks and am running them through a Sound Valves 101 6 tube 12ax7 cathode follower preamp and finishing off with Klipsch La Scala's .It's  unbeleivable the power these little 15 watt amps put out . I have NOS RCA tall bottle 6973's and new 12au7,and el81 ,power supply bypass with poly caps,all new wiring ,sockets and you know the story. 1/3 volume will take you out of the room,incredible little mono block's .

I want to bi amp W/Ampex 6973's and heathkit W5M's .Do I daisy chain the amps and then ?????? I don't know which feeds to run to.I have the Crites 4550 board .

You know,my wife had a baby boy but after being here and seeing how you gents know my ears better than I ,probaly eyes as well , I may have a girl .

[Taming Highs]

By highs I mean the tweeter is too hot .I have tailored the mid's by various trial and error using dampening materials .Let me state,I do mean the tweeters.I remember reading somewhere about wiring in resistors to the tweeter to tame it .Guy's I am a professional musician and done hi-fi for years .Not stating creds but I do know what I hear .

[Taming Highs]

I have the Crites tweeters and 4500 crossover in my 80's La Scala .Is there anyway to tone down the highs through rewiring the crossover ,resistors etc .It is too intense .Thank you in advance .

[La Scala tweaks and hacks? Hit me]

Jimjimbo and all !

Having been around the world three times and reading every comic book known to man I think I can state with authority the ultimate tweaks for stock La Scala 's .Hmmuuumm  ( clearing throat prior to speech ) . NOW , I have found that if you chew a piece of Wrigley's Spearmint gum for 12 minutes , another at 10 mins ,allow them to cure for two days and then place  the 12 minute chewed piece 8 mm into the squaker horn at the 11:00 position and the other  12mm back at the 3:00 position it pulls the AB 12,000 HZ distortion  out of the equation . Next you need a 1958 D mint silver dime ( the newer bi-metals sound way to harsh ) and place it under tha cabinet on the NESW corner tangent to the earths gravitional pull at 48 henries 138:00 degrees it will eliminate the need for braces to the doghouse as it will suffice to pull all the bass resonance from the cabinet . Next and final step . Take a dab of Max Factor Blushing Bride Pink nail polish and apply the dab to the upper right hand corner , 1 mm in on the tweeter horn ( 2 mm if it's a Crites , drink your favorite beverage heavily for 27 minutes as if you were back in college , turn on your system to a lease breaking decibel level , sit back and close your eyes and you sir will have the sound you always dreamed the La Scala's were capable of reproducing .I hold the patent for this tweak allthough having stolen the plans from a German Monk retreat to remain anonymous but any or all are free to employ it .

[1980 La Scala value?]

Its all what someone is willing to pay. I just got $1700 for 1980 scalas w/ crites tweeters and A/4500 networks.

Hey,

I'm the guy that bought them .They sing through the Ampex 6973 mono blocks.
